Self-Assembly Assisted Fabrication of Nanoporous Nickel (II) Phosphate Octahydrate Microspheres Catalyst with Orange Peel Surface toward Urea Oxidation

摘要

Herein, we report an easy one-step approach for the synthesis of nickel (II) phosphate octahydrate nanoporous microspheres catalyst (NiP) with orange peel surface under one-pot hydro- thermal single-source precursor. The morphology and the particle size of the NiP materials were switched by tuning the parameters of the hydrothermal procedure. The materials were formed in a single phase of Ni3(PO4)2·8H2O with a monoclinic crystal lattice.
